James Bond producers discuss Danny Boyle’s exit from No Time To Die

January 20, 2020 by Liam Waddington

Before True Detective director Cary Fukunaga was brought on to helm No Time To Die, Danny Boyle (Trainspotting, Slumdog Millionaire) was the original director before departing due to creative differences.

In an interview with Variety, producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson discussed Boyle’s exit from the project explaining the director and the producers were not aligned on the direction for Daniel Craig’s final outing as Bond.

“It was hard on both sides because we had mutual respect and admiration, but better to know [the differences] before you embark on a project,” Broccoli said. “We worked together well for a number of months, but there came a point when we were discussing the kind of film that we wanted to make, and we both came to the conclusion we were not aligned. Movies are very hard to make when you’re all on the same page. When you’re not, it’s basically impossible; We recognized that, and in a respectful way we realized that it wasn’t going to work out.”

Bond has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.

No Time To Die is set for release in the UK on April 2nd 2020 and in the U.S. on April 8th 2020 and stars Daniel Craig (James Bond), Ralph Fiennes (M), Naomie Harris (Moneypenny), Rory Kinnear (Tanner), Léa Seydoux (Madeleine Swann), Ben Whishaw (Q), Jeffrey Wright (Felix Leiter) and Christoph Waltz (Blofeld), while new additions include Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody), Ana de Armas (Blade Runner 2049), Lashana Lynch (Captain Marvel), Billy Magnussen (Velvet Buzzsaw), Dali Benssalah (A Faithful Man) and David Dencik (Top of the Lake).
